Oskaloosa Cheer Members Chosen For All-State Cheer

This past weekend 6 of our Varsity cheerleaders had tryouts for All-State Cheer. The Iowa All-State Cheerleading Squad is an ICCA/IHSAA sponsored, select team. Any varsity cheerleader of an ICCA member team can try out for the team. Tryouts are held in October every year. Candidates are judged on their motions, jumps, danceability, and gymnastics. A team of 20-35 of Iowa’s best cheerleaders is chosen. A choreographer is hired and the team practices on four different Sundays from January to March. During the IHSAA Boys State Basketball Tournament, the team comes together and performs during half-time of two of the Friday games. The last performance is during the 1A final. This half-time performance is televised and team members are presented with medals.
Oskaloosa had FOUR girls chosen to be on the squad! Please congratulate these girls if you see them: Caitleen Potot, Jade Whitley, Jordan Czerwinski, and Mya Helm.
